Grand Family Residence of Timeless Character

Positioned on a commanding 562sqm (approx.) parcel opposite Waverley Park, 'Highgate' is a tightly held Federation residence that has remained in the same family for over 80 years. Beautifully restored and extended across four generations, it combines timeless character with flexible family living just moments from Bronte, Bondi and Tamarama Beaches.

Designed for growing and multi-generational families, the versatile floorplan features a choice of formal and informal living areas, seamless indoor-outdoor entertaining and a self-contained one-bedroom apartment that can operate independently or as part of the main residence. Original Federation details including ornate ceilings, leadlight windows and fireplaces are complemented by a contemporary rear extension that opens to private gardens and sunlit terraces.

Set well back from the street behind established gardens, the home enjoys exceptional privacy with a sunny north-facing verandah, double lock-up garage and future potential to enhance the upper level (STCA). Opposite Waverley Park and within walking distance of leading schools, South Bondi village and three of Sydney's iconic beaches, this is a rare opportunity to secure a landmark family home in a prized coastal setting.
